    Right so I’m split between getting a universe class or the intel dread cruiser. I’m mainly going for a tank build but I want my ship to look nice too. Any opinions?

    I'll put my experience on the Intel Dreadnought (Vengeance Class). It is one of the most finest Starfleet ships.

    It is pretty tanky and can fit multiple tweaks, based on what you'll wanna roll over time.

    The trait is meh, but the console is interesting and the ship, as a ship frame is a fed-oriented scimitar. Highly similar with the Operations Dreadnought (Shamshir) class, but better since it allows you to use OSS as well, besides having a warpcore instead of a singularity.
    Truth is uncomfortable most of the times. That's why you gotta face it every time.

    If you like the ship, you should consider the Tactical T6 Odyssey she is a beast of a Tank, I link you a video from SOB.

    I can confirm that the Tactical Odyssey is a very good choice for tanking. The Console set is just so good as well. If you want to take a look, here is my current tank build on it.

    If it comes to the choice of Universe vs Kelvin Intel Dread, I would choose the latter just because it is a great platform, 5-3 weapon layout, good Boff layout. Visually both ships are very taste-dependent. The Intel dread hurts my personal eyes less than the Universe.
